A group of former U.S. intelligence and Special Forces operatives is set to launch a media campaign, including TV ads, that scolds President Barack Obama for taking credit for the killing of Osama bin Laden and argues that high-level leaks are endangering American lives.

Leaders of the group, the Special Operations OPSEC Education Fund Inc, say it is nonpartisan and unconnected to any political party or presidential campaign. It is registered as a so-called social welfare group, which means its primary purpose is to further the common good and its political activities should be secondary.

In the past, military exploits have been turned against presidential candidates by outside groups, most famously the Swift Boat ads in 2004 that questioned Democratic nominee John Kerry's Vietnam War service.

The OPSEC group says it is not political and aims to save American lives. Its first public salvo is a 22-minute film that includes criticism of Obama and his administration. The film, to be released on Wednesday, was seen in advance by Reuters.

"Mr. President, you did not kill Osama bin Laden, America did. The work that the American military has done killed Osama bin Laden. You did not," Ben Smith, identified as a Navy SEAL, says in the film...

I'd call that a true social welfare group, one that is working for the common good and to save American lives. There can be no better outcome for the common good and no more effective way of saving lives than to remove an anti-American communist from our White House. I pray that they will succeed without the need for another civil war.

When the Intelligence & Special Ops are taking a stand for America - it seems to be a 'no brainer' that WE THE PEOPLE have to step up to the plate - put all our personal feelings aside & do our duty to vote the traitor in our White House out of office.

The Left is already pi!ssed at Obama that he piddled away 2 years of Democrat control of Congress and the White House. The legislation he did not pass is because of internal party opposition.

They support him on same sex marriage and lesbian generals but do not believe they will help him win votes in “flyover country” or among church going black voters. They know that “bigotry and superstition” rule the day in elections.

They won’t concede defeat but they’ve come out with the long knives to mock and profane Paul Ryan. I’m talking about frequent posts on Facebook from adults in their 50s and 60s using F-bombs, A-bombs, S-bombs, CS-bombs, and trotting out a rehash of the Herman Munster pics, only this time pretending that Mitt Romney looks somehow like Herman Munster and trying to make the stretch that Paul Ryan looks like Eddie Munster.

They’ve got nothing but desperation. They are irate that their hostile astroturf thugs are getting evicted from campaign speech events.
